Quality Infrastructure

Altos is a gated community and only residents and their guests are allowed. Set on 3800 acres of mountain and valley property, the Melo group has invested millions of dollars in infrastructure. This includes a community center with social areas and shops, a natural swimming pool next to a waterfall, a heliport, telephone, Direct TV, high speed internet service and 19 miles of paved roads. There are also 11 miles of nature trails with suspension bridges, stairways, walkways and buttresses. If you are a horse lover you can own horses and ride for miles never seeing a car.

Spring-Like Climate Year Round: Temperatures at Altos vary little from a comfortable 75 degrees all year. There is no humidity as there is in most parts of Panama. In the upper areas, some homes have fireplaces for cooler evenings. The unchanging temperatures make for easy and predictable living. And anytime you feel like some heat, beautiful beaches are a mere half an hour away.

Your homesite and home: Lots are large, averaging half an acre in size and the price range is in the $40,000 to $370,000 range. You can choose a level lot or a soft slope, a little valley or a plateau. Altos has a selection of model homes to chose from or you can custom build. Many homes are already built and consist of everything from weekend homes to expansive mountain villas.

Convenient Financing: You can buy a lot for only10% down and finance the rest with a loan from the Melo group itself.

Live Close to Nature: Altos is adjacent to an ancient volcano so flowers and trees bloom easily in the rich volcanic soil. From the beginning, concern for the ecology of the area was a priority for Grupo Melo. There are vast common green areas where no construction is allowed and green areas are cared for daily by gardening crews. Some of the animals to be seen are deer, monkeys, sloths, birds, butterflies and Panama's famous golden frog.
